A new paper entitled “Isorhamnetin protects porcine oocytes from zearalenone-induced reproductive toxicity through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway” investigated the effects of a natural flavonoid called isorhamnetin on the damage caused by a toxin called Zearalenone (ZEA) to pig oocytes (immature egg cells). Zearalenone (ZEA) is a harmful mycotoxin …

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can severely damage the body’s circulatory vessels, which inhibits oxygen, hormones, and nutrients from getting to vital body tissues. Patients with Long COVID have been shown to have impaired microcirculation up to 18 months after infection, and possibly even longer if those vessels aren’t repaired. Dama…

The endogenous compound PEA (palmitoylethanolamide) is a natural anti-inflammatory agent which works in affiliation with the endocannabinoid system to help modulate pain. PEA was first discovered in the 1950s after being isolated from the lipid fraction of egg yolk. In recent years, PEA research has largely focused on neuropathic pain states and ma…

Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is a naturally occurring endocannabinoid-like lipid mediator naturally found in many plants. PEA is analgesic, immunomodulatory, neuroprotective, antipyretic, antiepileptic, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, antibacterial and antiviral. PEA also increases endocannabinoids and it down regulates mast cell activation. PEA …

Background Information—Form and Function of B12Vitamin B12 FormCyanocobalamin has no known biochemical function. It must be converted to become active. It gets converted for use into hydroxocobalamin, methylcobalamin, or adenosylcobalamin. These three forms are equal in bioavailability.An exception to this is for the use of adenosylcobalamin in inf…
